If you’re a newbie runner, then the Dingo Dash is a great starting point in building your running experience. We'd love to have you on board! We have two different training plans to help you on your way - one for walkers looking to run and one for more experienced runners looking to set a new PB!

Your registration includes your finishers' medal, water bottle and awesome race precinct.

Children aged four and over must register to participate.

If you want a medal and racing bib for your under four year old, they will need to be a registered participant.

We advise children under 11 to stay within arms reach of an adult or guardian at all times throughout the race.
